This book was released on 2014-08-19 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Mucuna pruriens” is a bean that grows in the tropics. It is very rich in natural levodopa that is better tolerated and more potent than the synthetic levodopa in Sinemet or Stalevo. Two prestigious neurologists have patented extracts of mucuna seeds as a treatment for Parkinson's. Meanwhile, patients have recorded their positive experiences with mucuna; they buy it online (no prescription needed) and use it in secrecy without consulting their neurologist. Neither the patients nor the doctors (most of them) have clear ideas about this plant, its ingredients (not only levodopa), the proportions in which it is absorbed, or how to manage it. "Mucuna versus Parkinson: Natural Levodopa Treatment" is so far the most complete and up-to-date monograph on the subject, it describes the theoretical and practical approaches to the use of this plant as a treatment option for Parkinson's disease. Also included are more than one hundred of references.

Download or read book Ecological Therapy for Parkinson s Disease written by Rafael Gonzalez Maldonado and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-02-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pharmacies have no treatment for Parkinson's disease, merely to alleviate symptoms. Drugs do not cure and, furthermore, they are harmful in the long run. After five years, new symptoms (which Dr Parkinson never saw) are added to those of the disease itself. Only two treatments could halt the progression: exercise and pleasure (by sprouting the body's own dopamine). The patients also benefit from sensory diet, food, dreams, and microbiota. At some stage levodopa is needed, and it is better to start with the natural one (mucuna). This book proposes an ecological management of Parkinson's disease: medication, late and little. Dr RG Maldonado is a neurologist and a well-known scientific communicator, author of books in English (The strange case of Dr Parkinson, Mucuna versus Parkinson, Natural remedies in Parkinson's disesase) and others in Spanish (Parkinson y estrés, Conjeturas de un neurólogo, Tratamientos heterodoxos en la enfermedad de Parkinson).

Download or read book Beans Roots and Leaves written by Paul Bernard Foley and published by Tectum Verlag DE. This book was released on 2003 with total page 932 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parkinsonism of various types has long been a debilitating and cruel affliction for significant numbers of people, and even today the cure remains elusive. The present volume explores the colorful and sometimes alarming history of the attempts to provide at least some relief from the symptoms of this disorder, commencing with interesting reports from ancient India and medieval Europe and continuing until the present time. Especial attention is devoted to L-DOPA therapy, still the leading pharmacological approach to the disorder more than forty years after its first application, and its place in the development of neurochemistry. But the employment of solanaceous plant alkaloid-based therapies, which dominated antiparkinsonian therapy until the mid-20th century, and the broad range of other approaches which found varying degrees of popularity, including those stimulated by the encephalitis epidemic which appeared in Europe during the First World War, are also discussed. The author concludes that antiparkinsonian therapy was never 'irrational', but was rather always determined by prevailing medical, pharmacological and scientific paradigms, so that its history is inextricably linked with experimental and clinical developments in these fields.

Bush involving the NIH and NIMH "to enhance public awareness of the benefits to be derived from brain research"(1).

Download or read book Parkinson s Disease written by Sarat Chandra Yenisetti and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-05-30 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder results due to loss of dopamine producing brain cells. Knowledge relating to PD condition has been known since 5000BC, however no effective therapeutic strategies are available till today. Therefore it is important for neurobiologists to work further by taking advantage of modern scientific methods and develop appropriate therapeutic strategies. Efforts in this direction are worthy as they will reduce the burden of PD among elderly, who are already burdened with age related systemic degenerative processes. This book is a humble effort in that progressive direction. It has chapters covering multiple aspects relating to etiology, pathophysiology of PD, available and futuristic therapeutics strategies. Therefore it will be of interest to common man, biomedical researchers and clinicians. This is one small step in a direction "to reduce the burden of neurological disease."
